NASCAR '08 on Xbox 360

Not worth buying

Daniel J from Wales , 26/07/2007

After playing the Demo, EA have tried to mimic Forza Motosports realism by showing the fuel and suspension e.t.c during a race. I Recommend you buy a true realisitic racing game lik Forza rather than playing a repetetive NASCAR game. Only for people who are die hard NASCAR fans.

Limited and Frustrating

A customer from Haslemere , 07/01/2008

I've been playing driving games for years, after playing Forza 2 for a few months and having a vague interest in Nascar i thought i'd give it a try.

Doing the licenses is probably the most interesting part of the game, it at least sets situations on the track and lets you conquer them before progressing with your nascar licence.

The actual racing part of the game is completely frustrating.

The first point that so many people have pointed out is that, yes for the most part you are racing on daytona or talledega which are rings which requre no braking for the corners... It does get a little old once you are on your tenth lap.

My main problem with the game is that, after a near perfect race, i've done 9 laps and have a 3 second head start over the competition.... I make one tiny mistake and my cars spinning.... i'm in pretty much last place with no hope of getting back up the pack.

You'd have to be a complete Nascar nut to like this game. If your not, then i urge you to forget about renting it.

What do you expect

Idene from Newcastle Upon Tyne [Highly rated reviewer] , 16/11/2007

This is a game where you drive round in circles. Rubbish handling, rubbish cars, rubbish graphics, awful sound, rubbish levels.

Just dont bother.
